Everyone can say whatever they want about the ATLA live action but it was worth it for Ep 6 alone. I could write an essay on that episode and what they managed to do with it except I can’t because I will start crying.
That scene at the end alone??? Every one of Zuko’s crew bowing to him in respect, feeling gratitude and honor to serve him and the emotions hitting Zuko, who has needed this for three years, as he walks to his room???
I am in fucking tears.

Well written fiction is by definition going to be edgy and problematic but not for the reasons you think; it's because in order to present a compelling argument for or against something you also have to present a case for the other side. If you're willing to strawman the opposing case the book will not be very good

I did a marathon yesterday and watched all 8 ep of Avatar.
I think it was fun, the original is obviously 8926583756 times better but it wasn't as bad as some people say it was.
It's just as I expected: some weird CGI, a little bit of cringyness, weird cuts and mixes of the plot, and the characters sometimes are a bit off... but in general, I enjoyed it.
If they do a second season I'll totally watch it.
/also Iroh and Zuko made me cry like 3 times.

it's always so fascinating and heartbreaking when a character in a story is simultaneously idolized and abused. a chosen prophet destined for martyrdom. a child prodigy forced to grow up too fast. a powerful warrior raised as nothing but a weapon. there's just something so uniquely messed up about singing someone's praises whilst destroying them.

Leaves from the vine
Falling so slow
Like fragile tiny shells
Drifting in the foam
Little soldier boy
Come marching home
Brave soldier boy
Come marching home
Ash in the snow
Falling so slow
Like fragile broken hearts with no place to go
Little soldier boy
Taken from home
Forced to fight a war
That was not his own
Little soldier boy
Cold and alone
Brave soldier boy
Never made it home
Leaves from the vine
Changing so slow
Like empty fallen souls
Looking for a home
Little soldier boy
Thought he could soar
Brave soldier boy
Fallen in the war
My little soldier boy
I need you home
Brave soldier boy
Come marching home

I came into this with no expectations but I did not expect zuko to get his ass handed to him by a random woman with a broom. “How dare you beat that child” lady I see you and you deserve a medal.
